The Cat and the Iron Pot.

There was once a cat who had a

ike it, said the pot, and shall

This so enrased the cat that she

over; but it was half filed with
cold soup, and with a shrek of
dismay the cat fed to the melap-
cholly solitudes of the cellar and
has ever since been trying to clean
herself up.

Swine as Weed Eradicators.

seasons's efforts of hogs; and they
are equally effective against other
persistent plants that cumber tie
ground,
"The best way is to fence off al
spots infested with noxious
weeds hard to kill, and turn in
hogs. Shelled corn should BE
scattered about to induce
them TO root, and they should not
be fed so much but that they will
have keen appetites. The little
PIGGY breeds are good for nothing

breed that is genuine. They take
naturally to natures food

1t has a very sweet root and if the
hogs are pinched a little on the
start, until they get a taste, they
would also destrny the quack. If
The ground be too hard it should
be ploughed, and corn scattered
about. Hogs will also eat the
roots Of Canada thistIes, as they
are quite sugary. The good things
hogs will do, when they have a
chance, have never all been told.

Avery, who held the mortgage on

sion to asking aid or help of him
10 any way. l might be poor, but
was always proud, and Kitty WAS
quite sympathetic enough to IN,
derstand me.
I Sat down on the hearthrug,
with my chin in my hands, and
stared earnestly at the big, crack
ling back log.

denly. "'Fhosc russell apples we

"But, Addy, how? All this

"Well, it needn't; for believe
me, it is the most practical thing
in the world. All we have to do
is to sort the apples out in barrels,
nice and sound-I can easily do it
by lantern light tonight and
tomorrow morning we'll rise early,
harness old Dobbin to the lumber
wagon"
"And what shall we tell papa?"
"Oh, he'll think I've gone to
singing school with the Dyson

But Notwithstanding the brave
face put upon affairs, my heart
quivered a little the next day, as I
drove off toward Mapleton with
the scarlet stain of sunrise dying
all the east and my own cheek
blushed with the keen morning air.
Mr.. Holloway of the firm Of
Holloway Brothers, produce and
commission merchants. didn't want
any apples 1 speedily learned.
"Just bought shipIoad from

if shiploads of apples were as COM
mon a purchase as ten cents
worth of tape. Aud 1 drove on,
beginning to feel enthusiastically
small.
Mr.. Lovejoy could give me a
dollar barrel. "Apples wasn't
worth no more at the season of the
year!" And l whipped old Dob
bin up, determined to carry them
home again sooner than sell them
at that price.
At the next place I stopped, q
pleasant-looking middIe-aged man
came ont and critically examined
my apples.
"How much?H he asked.

He reflected.
It's good price. F" he said, as if
he were talking to his own vest

He went back into the gloomy
depths of his store and I, happen

painted in black letters over the
door: Hull & Avery"

HAPPY New YEAR to all t!
THE NEW YEAR.

THE HERALD bids the old year a
CHEEKY goodbye, and heartily welcomes
the new one. There is not much regret
in parting with 1896. It has not been
without its pleasures and triumphs for
the people of Utah, but it brought also
its sorrows and suferings. To a less
earnest, less hopeful, less trustful COM
munity than this, the year would have
been sad in the extreme, and the mem
DRY Of it would have brought the recol-
lection of much that was unpleasant to
think about. We can all let it go with
out a sigh, and a good many would
gladly blot it fEsm their memories.
If we can let the Old year go without
a pang of regret We can also greet the
bright new one with a,hearty welcome.
The horizon is not as bright aas it has
been. but it is Oar brighter than it was
year ago. The heavens are full of prom.
Use, and hope aud confidence fill. the
hearts of the people. There is a more
cheerful outlook than has been seen
for long time; there is better, more
hopeful and far more contented feeling
throughout the community than has
prevailed e any time within eighteen
months. Dhe people did not know what
they could endure; they were ignorant
Of their ewn strength, and could not
fGthom the depth of their faith. Their
trials have given them knowledge of
themselves, and told them of their
power. The mountains which loomed
before them, have been surmounted
and now appear as insignificant hills;
obstacles which seemed insurmount-
able, have been overcome, and the
effort, instead of exhausting, has
'enewed strength. The prospect is
brighter because the people having {
earned themselves, feel better able to /
ndure what the future has in stor5 for
hem; the terrors Of the past are the v
rifles OF to-day. The new year is well P
ONE Because it faces courage, vigor, il
ope, determination, and faith as sin 4
ere IS has ever heen exhibited in any C
ge Of tie world or by any people.

MORE UTAH NEWS.

A paragraph is going the rounds of
press saying the Post Office Department
has received information of a ICON
spiracy among, a number of postmas-
ters in Utah to increase their salaries
by a novel device. They have been
making acquisitions for large supplies
Of stanpS and reporting corresponding
cancellations from their offices. The
stamps have been used largely in pay
ing their personal expenses, and those
thus expended are reported as cancelled
at their offices. Enough postmasters Of
a certain section were in the conspiracy
to prevent onetrom being check upon
the others, and so the ma tterihas gore
on until it isnCw estimated. upon dis
covery OF the plan, that the govern
ment has suffered to the extent of from
$780, to SAC, o0e." All this lacks of be-
ing characteristic item is the assertion
that the 'conapirstors' were Nor
mons. Doubtless this would have
been added we're it not Tor
the fact that the combined salaries of
all Mormon postmasters for many
years past would not have aggregated
the $40, 600 alleged to have been stolen.
Like so many stories emanating from
Utah or concerning the people of this
Territory, the one above is probably
true in no respect. If it is true it is very
remarkable that nothing has been heard
about the conspiracy by postmasters
or anybody else There is a. story re.
garding Utah postmasters, but it is one |
which government officials do not take
pride in repeating. 1t is to this-AIor-

compel the law to step in to protect

all other men stand ready to protect

The contest in Carroll will be triangular
one, if the Prohbitionists adhere to their
purl se to nominate ticket Their coayen
ZION will be held to-day, but if the selection
of candidates is to be left to a committee, to
be appointed by the convention, and the com
mittee, as has been suggested, make up
ticket from the Democratic and Republican
nominees, their time will be wasted and the
Prohibition campaign be only farce. The
convention should select capable candidates
of their own, Prohibitionists, not either Dem.
ocrats or Republicans, nor with any attempt
TO balance the nominees according to former
political associations. This is the idea OF
thorough Prohibitionists, who favors a straight
Prohibition ticket, and he believes a good
vote can be polled if straightforward work is
done.
The Republicans hold primaries to. day and
county convention on Monday. The party
managers have had their heads together fire.
quently the past two weeks, selecting candi-
dates, and when the convention meets on
Monday the slate will be pretty well made up
for the delegates to formally endorse. There
will be some disappointments, and the strong
ticket that has been spoken of and the har-
monious action will not be so apparent. Sew.
eral persons who are aspirants are not &C
ceptable to the managers, and some desired
will not accept.
On Thursday next the Democratic candi.
dates and members of the Democratic Cen
trial Committee will meet in this city, and ar.
engagements will be made to poll the full party
strength and to roll up Democratic majority
larger than ever before recorded in Carroll.
The. conditions are all favorable for such a
result.
The Republicans are preparing to issue =
campaign paper, and the first copy will be
published next week. 1t will be edited by

We see it noted in the Lutheran Observer
that Rev. Jacob K. Miller, of the Lutheran
Church. died September 9Th, 1887, at Logans
vile, Clinton county, Pa. He was born at
Manchester, then in Baltimore county, on
October "a, 1882. He was the eldest son Of
Charles Miller, who was over fifty years ago a
respected citizen of Manchester, and post
master there for years. Rev. j. X. Miller
received his education at the Academy there,
and afterwards at Gettysburg College, Penna.,
which he entered in 1874. He studied theol-
ogy in Gettysburg Seminary, was licensed in
1850, and his first passionate was at Stoyestown,
Somerset county, Pa, from 1850 to 1857.
His health then breaking, he served as super
intendent of public schools in that county for
three years. He then accepted call to the
Arendtsvile charge, Adams county, Pa,
where he labored with ability and success
from 1861 to 1867. He then served the
Grindstone Hill charge, in Franklin county,
Pa, from 1867 to 1870; then at Centre Hall,
Pa, from 1870 to 1875; then at Boalsburg
charge, Centre county, Pa. from 1876 to
1873; and since 1880 at the Sugar Valley
charge, Clinton county, Pa, to his death.
He is spoken of as an able and faithful preacher
of the Gospel. He was twice married. His
first wife was Charlotte Fl. Zeigler, of Gettys-
burg; his second wife was a daughter of G..
w. Lonebarger, of near Centre Hall, Pa. His
last wife and eight children (seyen by his first
wife) survive him.
